Congratulations to the Pop Warner Cheerleaders who competed in Regionals in New Jersey over the weekend, who earned a trophy for zero deductions in performance and legality! They are continuing their hard work despite the Pop Warner season being over with competitions, opportunities with Colgate University and more.
